Abstract

The nontranscribed spacer (NTS) region of the ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes is the most important region of the rDNA because it contains the nucleotide sequences that trigger and/or terminate transcription. To understand the structural organization of the NTS region of Neurospora crassa rDNA we have cloned and sequenced the complete NTS region and compared it with the corresponding sequences from other organisms.
